I was affirming what you said, by introducing the Elizabethan notion of moderation, which claims that "thou shalt have more than two tens to a score" if you are well tempered.
Good Lord, this is the second old text quote from you I've read today. Do you keep these next to your computer?goldendawn said:I appreciate the compliment boasboy. And yes, Glitterfairy, the choice is yours. As the fool from King Lear says:
"Have more than thou showest,
Speak less than thou knowest,
Lend less than thou owest,
Ride more than thou goest,
Learn more than thou trowest,
Set less than thou throwest,
Leave thy drink and thy whore,
And keep in a door,
And thou shalt have more
Than two tens to a score."
If my quoting is getting annoying, drop me a hint and I'll stop. Sometimes I just get into poetic and reflective moods; and its then that you really gotta watch out. Hehe
As I said in the other thread, it doesn't bother me in the least.goldendawn said:No, I don't keep old tomes beside my computer! I just have a knack for remembering interesting quotes. Eccentricity becomes me.
Heeheehee was there ever a point in the first place...?goldendawn said:

Life is so cruel! .
In many religions (other than Byzantine Christianity!), sensuality is a part of greater spirituality (hence Bollywood movies are so beautifully colourful and musical). Brazen sexuality on the other hand, can become perverted when it does not find its fulfilment in the soul; when it denounces transcendant and fiery beauty; when it accepts material sense as the only sense. Eternal damnation, likewise, is of our own making. I believe that good and evil are earthy values, and that the greater universe breathes in and out in constant process of causation - of cause and effect. Good and evil are of our own making, because choice is all.glitterfairy said:
